Hi, just got back from our first venture in the motor home, 5 days in Norfolk on two sites. We had an excellent time, but also had a few problems. I broke the awning on day one but that is covered elsewhere.
To start with the electric water heater was working fine but then when we got to the second site it apparently gave up.
It is a Primus system and works perfectly on gas still. When we turn it on, on electric, we can hear the 'wotsits' clicking on the heater but no hot water! Has anyone got any ideas on what I can check in case it is something simple?
Any advice gratefully received
Regards Paul

Its called a learning curve with a brand new MH!

If you have a manual, have a look for tips in that, possibly there maybe a thermal cut out that needs resetting.

Thanks for that Peter, found the manual, located the thermal cut out switch, pressed it and hey presto lovely hot water again. Simple when you know what you're talking about.
Thanks again
Paul
